Lyrics of The Wreck Of The Fairchild - Thomas Dolby

The Wreck Of The Fairchild (original)

Whiskey Zulu a torre, aparato en dificultades, pido permiso inmediato de
aterrizaje, cambio
Whiskey Zulu a torre, tratando de nivelar, imposible visibilidad,
motor no responde, cambio
Llamando a base, repito 15 minutos de combustible, inminente, inminente
Base a whiskey zulu, permiso denegado, Permiso denegado, cambio y fuera
Motor no funciona, Motor no funciona, motor 1 bajado, por favor
Base a Whiskey Zulu, hay un aeropuerto militar, permiso denegado
Tren demasiado bajo, no creo que lo podamos soportar, no creo que lo podamos
Control a Whiskey Zulu, calma, calma
Whiskey Zulu a torre …$&%/…gk&$/&ls…radar no funciona
Repito uno, dos, tres… meg.
uno dos tres Fm megahertz, megahertz
Some fruits are sweet and some are poison
En el nombre del padre, y del hijo y del espíritu santo, amén

(translation)

Whiskey Zulu to tower, device in trouble, request immediate permission from
landing, change
Whiskey Zulu to tower, trying to level, impossible visibility,
engine does not respond, change
Calling base, I repeat 15 minutes of fuel, imminent, imminent
Base on zulu whiskey, permission denied, permission denied, over and out
Engine not running, Engine not running, engine 1 lowered please
Base at Whiskey Zulu, there is a military airport, permission denied
Train too low, I don't think we can take it, I don't think we can take it
Control to Whiskey Zulu, calm down, calm down
Whiskey Zulu to tower …$&%/…gk&$/&ls…radar not working
I repeat one, two, three…meg.
one two three Fm megahertz, megahertz
Some fruits are sweet and some are poison
In the name of the father, and of the son, and of the holy spirit, amen
